The fix looks good to me, provided that the extension is only added if it
doesn't already have one. I don't think it is that unreasonable to expect an
executable to have a .exe extension.
I'm ok with the patch itself: if we download an executable it's a good
thing to give it a .exe extension to give a hint so the user who later
wonders what this file is.
However CreateProcess() should really not care about the file extension.
Testing on Windows 2003ES shows that ren foo.exe foo,
CreateProcess("foo") works just fine.
